Abstract

The invention can be applied to a field of mobile terminal and provides a method, apparatus and mobile terminal for selecting hyperlinks. The method can include the steps of: detecting a hyperlink selection instruction on a current page; obtaining all hyperlinks within a display region corresponding to the hyperlink selection instruction as candidate hyperlinks, if detecting the hyperlink selection instruction; rendering a new page frame on the current page, the page frame showing the candidate hyperlinks in a preset display ratio; and selecting a required hyperlink from the candidate hyperlinks on the page frame. The invention enables to select a hyperlink on a page more accurately and conveniently.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A method for selecting hyperlinks, the method comprising the steps of:
 detecting a hyperlink selection instruction on a current page;   obtaining all hyperlinks within a display region corresponding to the hyperlink selection instruction as candidate hyperlinks, if detecting the hyperlink selection instruction;   rendering a new page frame on the current page, the page frame showing the candidate hyperlinks in a preset display ratio; and   selecting a required hyperlink from the candidate hyperlinks on the page frame.   
     
     
         2 . The method according to  claim 1 , wherein the step of obtaining all hyperlinks within a display region corresponding to the hyperlink selection instruction as candidate hyperlinks comprises the step of:
 obtaining all hyperlinks within a fixed display region centered on a coordinate point corresponding to the hyperlink selection instruction as the candidate hyperlinks.   
     
     
         3 . The method according to  claim 1 , wherein the step of selecting a required hyperlink from the candidate hyperlinks on the page frame comprises the step of:
 receiving a candidate hyperlink selection instruction on the page frame and selecting a candidate hyperlink corresponding to the candidate hyperlink selection instruction as a selected hyperlink, while closing the page frame and showing an object corresponding to the selected hyperlink on a newly-rendered browser page.   
     
     
         4 . The method according to  claim 1 , wherein before the step of obtaining all hyperlinks within a display region corresponding to the hyperlink selection instruction as candidate hyperlinks, the method further comprises:
 determining whether or not the hyperlink selection instruction corresponds uniquely to a hyperlink within the current page, and if so, showing an object of a hyperlink corresponding to the hyperlink selection instruction on a newly-rendered browser page.   
     
     
         5 . The method according to  claim 1 , wherein before the step of selecting a required hyperlink from the candidate hyperlinks on the page frame, the method further comprises:
 receiving a page frame drag instruction, and updating the candidate hyperlinks displayed on the page frame with all hyperlinks corresponding to a current page within a current display region of the dragged page frame as candidate hyperlinks.   
     
     
         6 . An apparatus for selecting hyperlinks, the apparatus comprising:
 an instruction detecting unit configured to detect a hyperlink selection instruction on a current page;   a hyperlink obtaining unit configured to obtain all hyperlinks within a display region corresponding to the hyperlink selection instruction as candidate hyperlinks, if detecting the hyperlink selection instruction;   a hyperlink showing unit configured to render a new page frame on the current page, the page frame showing the candidate hyperlinks in a preset display ratio; and   a hyperlink selecting unit configured to select a required hyperlink from the candidate hyperlinks on the page frame.   
     
     
         7 . The apparatus according to  claim 6 , wherein the hyperlink obtaining unit is configured to obtain all hyperlinks within a fixed display region centered on a coordinate point corresponding to the hyperlink selection instructions the candidate hyperlinks. 
     
     
         8 . The apparatus according to  claim 6 , wherein the hyperlink selecting unit is configured to receive a candidate hyperlink selection instruction on the page frame and select a candidate hyperlink corresponding to the candidate hyperlink selection instruction as a selected hyperlink, while closing the page frame and showing an object corresponding to the selected hyperlink on a newly-rendered browser page. 
     
     
         9 . The apparatus according to  claim 6 , wherein the apparatus further comprises:
 a determining unit configured to determine whether or not the hyperlink selection instruction corresponds uniquely to a hyperlink within the current page, and if so, show an object of a hyperlink corresponding to the hyperlink selection instruction on a newly-rendered browser page.   
     
     
         10 . The apparatus according to  claim 6 , wherein the apparatus further comprises:
 a hyperlink updating unit configured to receive a page frame drag instruction, and update the candidate hyperlinks displayed on the page frame with hyperlinks corresponding to a current page within a current display region of the dragged page frame as candidate hyperlinks.   
     
     
         11 . A computer readable storage medium storing the computer executable instructions, when executed, which cause a processor to perform the operations of:
 detecting a hyperlink selection instruction on a current page;   obtaining all hyperlinks within a display region corresponding to the hyperlink selection instruction as candidate hyperlinks, if detecting the hyperlink selection instruction;   rendering a new page frame on the current page, the page frame showing the candidate hyperlinks in a preset display ratio; and   selecting a required hyperlink from the candidate hyperlinks on the page frame.   
     
     
         12 . The computer readable storage medium according to  claim 11 , wherein the instruction for performing the operation of obtaining all hyperlinks within a display region corresponding to the hyperlink selection instruction as candidate hyperlinks comprises the instruction for performing the following operation of:
 obtaining all hyperlinks within a fixed display region centered on a coordinate point corresponding to the hyperlink selection instruction as the candidate hyperlinks.   
     
     
         13 . The computer readable storage medium according to  claim 11 , wherein the instruction for performing the operation of selecting a required hyperlink from the candidate hyperlinks on the page frame comprises the instruction for performing the following operation of:
 receiving a candidate hyperlink selection instruction on the page frame and selecting a candidate hyperlink corresponding to the candidate hyperlink selection instruction as a selected hyperlink, while closing the page frame and showing an object corresponding to the selected hyperlink on a newly-rendered browser page.   
     
     
         14 . The computer readable storage medium according to  claim 11 , further comprising the instruction for performing the following operation of: before obtaining all hyperlinks within a display region corresponding to the hyperlink selection instruction as candidate hyperlinks, determining whether or not the hyperlink selection instruction corresponds uniquely to a hyperlink within the current page, and if so, showing an object of a hyperlink corresponding to the hyperlink selection instruction on a newly-rendered browser page. 
     
     
         15 . The computer readable storage medium according to  claim 11 , further comprising the instruction for performing the following operation of: before selecting a required hyperlink from the candidate hyperlinks on the page frame, receiving a page frame drag instruction, and updating the candidate hyperlinks displayed on the page frame with all hyperlinks corresponding to a current page within a current display region of the dragged page frame as candidate hyperlinks.
